UL Listed
The test mark for the USA and Canada
The UL Listed test mark is probably the most commonly used of all. UL develops and publishes safety standards. They are used as the basis for testing samples of corresponding products, and the results are compared with the safety requirements to be met. The products marked “UL Listed” have been tested accordingly and approved for consumers.
The UL mark can be found on lots of common objects: computers, heaters, smoke detectors, fire extinguishers, life jackets, and many more.
“UL Listed” products correspond to a final product (end product) or a component for field installations. These products have been tested and can be installed in accordance with applicable local installation guidelines, such as ANSI/NFPA 70 and National Electrical Code (NEC).
This means the following for our chainflex cables:
Part of our chainflex cables is also UL Listed, giving our customers the option of using it in other areas of the machine without having to worry about the installation area chain or cable tray.
Using the example of a household appliance, e.g. a washing machine, this advantage becomes more tangible. All components in a machine have different UL standards that they must fulfil and the buyer of the machine would have to test and evaluate all these standards in order to be allowed to operate this machine in the USA. However, this is impossible and unrealistic for the customer. Therefore, the manufacturer of the machine takes on this work and has the machine tested as a whole by UL. Once the entire machine has been tested and certified, the machine as a whole is given a UL listed marking. The customer can then plug in the machine and get started. The UL Listed cable behaves similarly. In contrast to AWM cable, this cable can be used in the chain and outside the chain within the scope of its technical specification. No special housing or covers are required.
